Pretty women out walking with gorillas down my street
From my window I'm staring while my coffee goes cold Look over there (where?) There, there's a lady that I used to know She's married now or engaged or something, so I'm told Is she really going out with him? Is she really gonna take him home tonight? Is she really going out with him? 'Cause if my eyes don't deceive me, there's something going wrong around here Tonight's the night when I go to all the parties down my street I wash my hair and I kid myself I look real smooth Look over there (where?) There, here comes Jeanie with her new boyfriend They say that looks don't count for much, if so, there goes your proof Is she really going out with him? Is she really gonna take him home tonight? Is she really going out with him? 'Cause if my eyes don't deceive me, there's something going wrong around here Around here But if looks could kill There's a man there who is marked down as dead 'Cause I've had my fill Listen you, take your hands from her head I get so mean around the scene Hey, hey, hey Is she really going out with him? Is she really gonna take him home tonight? Is she really going out with him? 'Cause if my eyes don't deceive me, there's something going wrong around here Around here Something going wrong around here Something going wrong around here Something going wrong around here Something going wrong around |

I've just been to see my best friend
He's found another girl Says she's just about the best thing In the whole damn world And he says, "Can't you see What the little lady's done for me?" Says it like he thinks I'm blind But the things that you see Ain't necessarily the things you can find Happy loving couples make it look so easy Happy loving couples always talk so kind 'Til the time that I can do my dancing with a partner Those happy couples ain't no friends of mine People say I'm too damn fussy When it comes to girls Happy couples say I must live in a lonely world Wanna be, wanna really be What my friends pretend to be Be it in my own good time Being kind to myself 'Til I become one of two of a kind But those happy loving couples make it look so easy Happy loving couples always talk so kind 'Til the time that I can do my dancing with a partner Those happy couples ain't no friends of mine You ain't no friends of mine You ain't no friends of mine You know what I mean Happy loving couples In matching lamb turtle-neck sweaters Reading Ideal Homes magazine Yeah! Wanna be, wanna really be What my friends pretend to be Be it in my own good time Being kind to myself 'Til I become one of two of a kind But those happy loving couples make it look so easy Happy loving couples always talk so kind 'Til the time that I can do my dancing with a partner Those happy couples ain't no friends of mine You ain't no friends of mine You ain't no friends of mine You ain't no friends of mine You ain't no friends of mine You ain't no friends of mine You ain't no friends of mine Right, that's enough |

When you're fixing your make-up
You know you take too long And when you mix me a drink up You know you mix it too strong And when you fix me a breakfast You know you fix it too late With the wrong kind of egg-cup And the wrong kind of plate But honey look at your eyes You got the innocent eyes Oh it's the innocent eyes And now you're asking me why I'm mad at you Mad at you So come on what's your problem You know we'll miss half the show How come I'm walking so fast How come your walking so slow After fixing your make-up For an hour and a half You say your new shoes are hurting And you expect me to laugh But honey look at your eyes You got the innocent eyes And now you're asking me why I'm mad at you Mad at you |

Ya make a guy feel humble
I make a fool of myself again Ya make me trip and stumble Just go dance by yourself again I'll just watch 'Cause that's all I wanna do But remember That I'm here with your drink At my table for two And you're kinda kute baby - kinda kute baby See you dance in your satin suit baby When you move gotta sit right down No competition with This kinda kutie around I see ya pass by my window Have to run down the stairs again I fix my hair around a corner Catch you unawares again And you laugh And you move that way again Just like last night - oh yea that's right I'm the guy with the big feet But plenty of nerve |

I was so low
People almost made me give up trying Always said no The I turned around saw someone smiling I stepped into I stepped into Into another Into another I stepped into I stepped into Into another Into another world There was no light I was going to all the wrong places Like day from night Suddenly I saw a thousand faces I stepped into I stepped into Into another Into another I stepped into I stepped into Into another Into another world |

Uptown ? downtown
No one's fussy I'm a target Black, white ? day, night No one's fussy I'm a target Somebody say I'm crazy Walking in this neighbourhood Say you can't be too careful But that won't do no good I'm no one special But any part of town Someone could smile at me then Shake my hand then gun me down Uptown ? downtown No one's fussy I'm a target Black, white ? day, night No one's fussy I'm a target Somebody say I'm crazy Living in this crazy town I say maybe you're just lazy Got to either swim or drown I know what I'm doing I'm happy day to day But then something happens Takes my nerve away Uptown ? downtown No one's fussy I'm a target Black, white ? day, night No one's fussy I'm a target |

Now The mist across the window hides the lines But nothing hides the colour Of the lights that shine Electricity so fine Look and dry your eyes We So tired of all the darkness in our lives With no more angry words to say Can come alive Get into a car and drive To the other side *Me babe - steppin out Into the night Into the light You babe - steppin out Into the night Into the light We Are young but getting old before our time We'll leave the t.v. and the radio behind Don't you wonder what we'll find Steppin out tonight You Can dress in pink and blue Just like a child And in a yellow taxi turn to me and smile We'll be there in just a while If you follow me Chorus |

Don't you feel like trying something new
Don't you feel like breaking out or breaking us in two You don't do the things that I do You want to do things I can't do Always something breaking us in two You and I could never live alone But don't you feel like breaking out just one day on your own Why does what I'm saying hurt you I didn't say that we were through Always something breaking us in two They say two hearts should beat as one for us We'll fight it out to see it through I say that won't be too much fun for us Though it's oh so nice to get advice It's oh so hard to do Could we be much closer if we tried We could stay at home and stare into each other's eyes Maybe we could last an hour Maybe then we'd see right through Always something breaking us in two |

Won't you be my number two?
Me and number one are through There won't be too much to do Just smile when I feel blue And there's not much left of me What you get is what you see Is it worth the energy? I'll leave it up to you And if you got something to say to me Don't try to lay your funny ways on me I know that it's really not fair of me But my heart's seen too much action And every time I look at you You'll be who I want you to And I'll do what I can do To make a dream or two come true (If you'll be my) If you'll be my number two And if you got something to say to me Don't try to lay your funny ways on me I know that it's really not fair of me But my heart's seen too much action And every time I look at you You'll be who I want you to And I'll do what I can do To make a dream or two come true (If you'll be my) If you'll be my number two |

Every time I turn on the TV it's always the same old tease
See everything you ever dreamed that you could want But nothing that you need And every gorgeous girl in Hollywood could soon be mine I got the money and from time to time I have the time Get the image right Party through the night But as it's getting light I'm still waiting for a soul kiss Do I have to say please And it's always just a near miss Always just a big tease Is it always gonna be like this When you're lookin' for a soul kiss And all the record stores Are filled with pretty boys and their material girls And even students vote for actors Then they tell you it's a safer world And all the hippies work for IBM or take control Of faster ways to sell you food that isn't really whole I like to wine and dine You sure are lookin' fine And we could kill some time But I'm looking for a soul kiss I've even said please But it's always just a near miss Always just a big tease Is it always gonna be like this When you're lookin' for a soul kiss |

You know you're gonna have to face up to the facts
Youre just another face in a big crowd You know we gotta try hard to relax We can laugh - but not too loud It's never like you see in a magazine And you don't even know what you mean to me And I don't understand this feeling But wanna be with you tonight Tonight and forever You drive me crazy and you say that you'll never change And I could never do what you want to Don't you find this whole thing a little strange I don't even know if I like you It's never like you see on a movie screen But there's something that you do to me And I'm not sure that I believe it But I wanna be with you tonight Tonight and forever |
